IQ is a threshold. The fact that 85 IQ blacks can’t run a society doesn’t mean that 105 IQ whites need to hand control of their prosperous nations over to 110 IQ Jews and Asians.

It is, but the fact that Jews and Asians are regularly the top of the list on IQ should tell you that its not as simple as "attractiveness and IQ are correlated, end of." Because both, if you remove the factor of job/money from the equation due to that's coloring effect, will regularly be mid-low on attractiveness scales in most societies.

So the "trade off" cope is likely equally as off base as the "smart people are also hot" one.

In the case of attractive women, I'd wager that, IQ or not, they never had to work as hard to achieve the same results due to being hotter and getting higher marks off that fact. Leaving them in reality dumber despite their capability once that was taken away, even if they could achieve much higher marks if given those tools and experiences.

What is IQ anyway, I think technically its measured in terms of spatial ability's?

The term IQ, or Intelligence Quotient, generally describes a score on a test that rates the subject's cognitive ability as compared to the general population.

Spatial reasoning is the mental transformation of spatial knowledge. >Such transformation is an integral component of everyday cognition, occurring within a variety of domains, such as attention, memory, and language, and across a variety of tasks, spatial and nonspatial alike.

I dont think its a really something that is "inherent" in people as more as something to be learned. Some people do learn much much more quickly and I guess thats what I discern as a true mark of intelligence.

But absolutely beauty correlates to intelligence, you cant typically have both. Again what is beauty, we can define it as a near perfect symmetrical face mixed in with your own personal subjections of what beauty is. What one person finds beautiful, others dont.

I guess if you want to be beautiful you better spend your time making it so. Spend your time looking in the mirror, going to social events, learning the newest fads. And then there is also raw lust, which is more a product of pheromones and subconscious desires that still are a mystery to this day.

Anyway this is the entire premise behind, can a person become a genius through hard work and sheer desire? I believe the answer is yes, others may feel it is no. One thing you will find in common with people like zuckemberg, cant believe i brought that guy up, or any other internet startup, or most inventions. They were done by people who had no friends, no social life to interrupt and get in the way of their mindly pursuits.

Cant say when I think of scientists or programmers, that I think of "beautiful" people lol.
